Welcome BACK to the Hellmouth! Pt.1

Slayin’ It! with Juliet Landau

Ever wondered what it’s like to step into the world of "Buffy the Vampire Slayer"? Join us for a wild ride as Juliet, Chris, and Frank take you on their surreal adventure to Hellmouth Con and beyond. From the epic experience of touring Sunnydale High to the origins of the convention itself, we share our story of fandom and friendship rooted in a love for cult classics like Ed Wood and Columbo.
But it wasn’t all smooth sailing; our journey was filled with personal hurdles like hospital visits and even house explosions. Despite the chaos, we managed to pull everything together just in time to return to the Hellmouth...and hand out flyers. At the convention, we had the incredible opportunity to interview Jean, the homeowner of Buffy's house, who gave Juliet hilarious and candid behind-the-scenes stories about the filming process and how her home became an iconic set.
As true Buffy enthusiasts, we share amusing and touching anecdotes, like stunt mishaps and the logistical challenges of shooting at real-life locations. Hear from David Greenwald, Buffy's co-executive producer, about casting choices and the intricacies of filming in live environments. David touches on related series like Angel and Grimm, discussing the evolution of background characters and the strong bonds among cast members. This episode is a treasure trove of humor, nostalgia, and insider insights that no Buffy fan should miss!
